I sat the darkness to shield my eyes the light.
I used the darkness to numb my pain.
I used the darkness to silence the noise.
I used the the darkness to conceal my fears.
I used the darkness to hide my tears.
I used the darkness mask my rage.
I used the darkness to drift into a wide eyed slumber.
However the light kept creeping in.
The light kept penetrating the shadows that I began to rely on.
The light removed the curtain that I cowairng behind.
I didn't to come in for fear that it would make me go blind.
The light disintegrated the darkness completely .
I was looking to the darkness because I did not want see.
I now embrace the light.
I now let it shine over me.
